An evening of 'thrillers' with Khan & Rutherford

We are delighted to be able to bring you another event in the bookshop with two authors in conversation. The Girl in Cell A is the new unmissable thriller from best selling author Vaseem Khan released on 1 May and The Missing Hour is a sparky, fast paced new thriller from Sunday Times Bestseller Rob Rutherford which releases on 10 April.

The world knows her as The Girl in Cell A, convicted of murder at seventeen, infamous killer and true crime celebrity Orianna Negi has always maintained her innocence. But if she didn’t kill Gideon Wyclerc … Orianna has a bind spot over the fateful day: she can’t remember what happened. Forensic psychologist Annie Ledet is tasked with unlocking the truth. So who did kill him? Orianna grew up in Eden Falls, ruled by the insular Wyclerc dynasty and its ruthless patriarch, Amos. As their sessions progress, Annie reaches into Orianna’s past to a shattering realisation .. Scandal. Sex. Power. Race. And murder. Between guilt and innocence lies a fallen Eden.

‘Full of unexpected, mind-bending twists, The Gil in Cell A explores memory, truth, and lies in a small American mining town … tense and surprising’ NITA PROSE

In this debut thriller The Missing Hour, reporter Maggie Brewer is woken in the night by the police dragging her husband out of bed. In a state of terror, she follows to the police station and is told the worst – her husband died whilst being arrested for murder. Everything points to his guilt … except the fact he was with Maggie when the murder happened. Four hundred miles away. Apart from one single hour. One missing hour when anything could have happened. In a bid to clear her husband’s name, Maggie embarks on a hair-raising game of cat and mouse to find out what really happened in that missing hour.

‘A breathless race across continents, an emotional battle, a shadowy killer: this thriller has it all’ SAM HOLLAND
